 Consider this code:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE DeriveAnyClass #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE StandaloneDeriving #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 {-# OPTIONS_GHC -Wall #-}
 module Bug where

 class C a where
   type T a
   data D a
   m :: a

 instance C Int
 deriving instance C Bool
 }}}

 Neither `C` instance implements any of its type families or methods.
 However, the manual `C Int` instance and the derived `C Bool` instance
 give different warnings:

 }}}

 Notice that the `C Int` instance warns about the lack of an implementation
 for `T` and `D`, as expected. However, the derived `C Bool` instance does
 not. It only warns about `m`!
